Conjecture on the Euclidean relative sigma-constant of the solid torus
Conjecture on the Euclidean relative sigma-constant of the solid torus
Let be a solid torus, i.e., a handlebody with one handle. Define
where the supremum is taken over all smooth, bounded domains whose closure is diffeomorphic to . Let be the region enclosed by the image of a Clifford torus under stereographic projection. Solid-torus Euclidean sigma-constant conjecture. The invariant is attained by . This proposes a distinguished extremal domain for the Euclidean relative -constant among domains whose closure is diffeomorphic to a solid torus; whether the conjecture holds is not resolved in the supplied text.
